Cobratop Fans, I have a question for you

[JLF]

This is on my local Craigslist...

Photos show a 'Cobratop' style BBX.

I know NOTHING about these!

Is this something I should buy immediately?

I dont want to run all the way out there if not.

Thanks!

Panasonic RX-ED77 Motorized Boombox - $50

If it is !00% with remote its a good buy, not the top of the line in the series but yet a quality built and sounding machine!

Could be a Japanese model watch for that 100V only would only work on batteries then......

Haven't had the opportunity to play with that model but I'm inclined to agree with the wisdom of Uncle Ed.

My thoughts - if it has the remote, I'd buy it. If not, I'd hold out for an ED90.

I got one and there a nice cool thing to have - the top that opens and closes and the decks move as well - i don't have a romote with mine - good sound and it's different to have in a collection

but the choice is yours as i picked mine up cheap and wouldn't want to pay to much

sorry to be of no help

cheers B

jeff - the advice is never over till i have spoken

this series of eggs are not eggs at all - they are WEDGES

some years ago --joe cool of s2g fame -
did some research and advised me to hold out for
'the king of all wedges'

so --about 1/2 year later --this panny rx-es30 popped on ebay-
i got it --liked it so much --that i immediately raced over to ramons
cave

at that time -- his pristine m70 was his proudest// loudest prize -

this little wedge WIPED IT.....OUTSIDE !!!

I like the wedge.

2 fully logic autorev decks
CD player
And a load of different functions.
The "sound virtualizer" is really good.
